How far is Gramvousa from Kissamos by car?
Yes! You can drive from Kissamos to Gramvousa. Be sure to stop and take it all in in-between working out where to put your foot next! Three quarters of the route is in shade so no real problems having to tackle the mid day heat.įrequently Asked Questions Can I drive from Kissamos to Gramvousa? It never felt like we were walking with other people although we did pass some other couples along the way. Overall it was a great alternative to Samaria and the route felt very quiet. The walk to Sougia from the exit of the gorge took 50 minutes and is all well paved roads which are mostly flat. After completing the walk you can either stop at oasis taverna for a cold drink or some food, or continue the walk back onto Sougia to the car. They offered great service and were very helpful. We parked in Sougia and arranged a cab to the top of the gorge for 30 euros from Sougia taxis. Also two toilet opportunities along the route. Water is available along the route although not all were functioning so it's a good idea to bring a good supply. We came here due to Samaria being closed for high winds - it cost 2 euros to enter. Mostly downhill with some small uphill sections requiring some careful negotiation of rocks. The rocks were fine but due to the dust/sand we would both recommend any comfortable footwear with good grip. I completed it in walking boots and my partner wore trainers. This walk took us 2.5 hours to complete, including two ten minute stops along the way and some photos opportunities. This seems an easy fix that would add immense value to visitors’ understanding.Īmazing vacuum tube collection! Unfortunately the value is lost if there are no attendant descriptions about what these artifacts are, what they were used for, and some context as to what came after. Why go to extraordinary lengths of craftsmanship if you don’t convey what the ship is, what year, what country, and hopefully what its purpose was? And yes, in English, too. Seems a waste that almost none of these excellent models offer information in any language. They have a model-making facility onsite. Ship models are numerous and outstanding. However many artifacts and photos in which I was interested lacked captions or the captions are worn and illegible. In the small WWII area, i.e., “Battle of Crete” section, some items have Greek & English captions, and the English is most welcome. Definitely recommend for those interested in WWII & maritime history.
